The last act from a frustrated furniture store dude sends a message to the 2nd best Democratic Party stronghold in Kansas.
Check it:
"Mr. Fyfe says he’s just speaking his mind, something he’s wanted to do since the seventies when he moved to Lawrence, Kan. The proud Kansas State Wildcats fan says the home of the Jayhawks is a place he doesn’t enjoy.
“They don’t call it Snobville for nothing. You get a lot of kids here from Johnson County, you know rich kids,” Mr. Fyfe said."

More in a bit . . .
He's really moving because Lawrence doesn't have a streetcar.
ReplyDeleteAs much as I like Lawrence.., he is right. Bunch of liberal snobs.
ReplyDeleteThe Lawrence newspaper cut off any comments that did not support Obama and the Liberal agenda.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the guy is right.
The man is going t "Vote with his feet" and look for some "Freedom of Association".
ReplyDeleteThat is all well and good, but what he will find out, is that Progressive, Liberal parasites will follow the tax paying public to live off of, ridicule and then destroy whatever city he moves to.

Did the local paper really cut off the comments?
Here's what makes him dumb.
ReplyDeleteIt took him 30 years to find that the local political culture did not match his.
Here's what makes him smart.
He finally figured it out and is doing something about it.
Is there a point for the majority of commentators on this dumb ass blog?
20% off coupons available for Uhaul long range rentals. Although, you can't paint the sides of the truck.
So, is he moving because of the rich snobs, or the commies? Poor guy seems confused.
ReplyDeleteThis is the same Payless furniture store owner that made his building exterior look as inviting as a roadside pornshack/strip joint on a Missouri interstate?
ReplyDeleteThe same Payless who has continually screamed they've been going out of/for business on Sunflower/WOW Cable ads since 1997? Color me shocked.
If you can't sell enough low-quality, poorly-made, furniture-meant-to-be-abused in a college town in order to remain open, perhaps the problem isn't the town. Further, if you have to shut down in the Sam Browback Era, maybe, just maybe, the problem isn't political.
My guess is that Lawrence growth has made the S. Iowa corridor appreciate in property values pretty significantly. And if you have a prime storefront along that route, and you're underperforming in a college market where you should excel? You won't be for long.
Fyfe may as well put an incoherently-labeled red truck out in front of Buffett's NFM store in Village West too, because that billionaire commie bastard utilized capitalistic forces and market advantages to create product(s) that appear more desirable than whatever the hell Payless was doing.
I read conjecture where this Fyfe dude may relocate to JoCo. If people aren't buying crap in Lawrence, they sure as shit aren't buying that crap in OP. Or he could go open a shop in MHK, but K-State kids don't want to buy poorly-made crap either.
I'm guessing that failure was a big part of this clod's life well before Obama took office.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I almost forgot...OBAMA'S COMING FOR OUR GUNS!!!
Fucking dolts.
Lawrence will cry big tears that he is gone.
ReplyDeleteDon't let the door hit you in the ass.....
Nobody is a bigger attention whore than Clay Chastain or Toni Bones, but this guy sure wants to be in the running.
ReplyDeleteBut then again, TKC is rapidly embellishing its image as the Attention Whore Capital of the KC Corner of the Internet.
Lawrence.....home of Hearne Christopher..
ReplyDeleteThat explains it....
Slum lords everywhere are lamenting the loss of another outlet for cheap substandard furniture.
ReplyDeleteDamn I want to buy this guy a beer.
ReplyDeleteThat's an expensive printing project for someone who went out of business.
ReplyDeleteHe travels the gun show circuit
ReplyDeleteWhat's the difference between Obamaville and Obamatown
ReplyDeleteObamatowns are backwaters run by militia's and Obamavilles are towns with single payer healthcare
